Hi @macmanpb,

This is not a bug, it's just a limitation:

After your split, would you have two bodies? Check extend if using surface, or use plane:

Thank you @Beyondforce,

i dont see the woods because about the trees 🙂

You are absolutely right, the splitting tool can only work if after the split you would have two bodies.

You have questioned, what piece that is. This is a welded steel rectangular pipe frame. The splitting is to create each single angled pipe part for that.

I'm happy I could help 🙂

Btw, you are not the first one, who had an issue with this! I'm sure there is a good explanation to why they limited this functionality. But luckily the solution is very easy.
